The twenty pound bags of Mahatna is going out fast. That shelf is often empty or there may one bag. The price has gone up a buck this month. I know I can not store wild mix rice as long, due to the oil. The price is way up on it if you can find it.
Have you noticed all the off-brand boxes of pasta that we have never heard of before? Even that is lined up like tired soldiers on the very front of the shelf. It is not enriched....
Running out of space for pasta in the pantry, I took one of those hanging shoe hangers, those brown fabric ones, and hung it on a rack used in the guest room. It is perfect for spaghetti noodle boxes and you can read them. I did some of the cubbies with other boxed pasta and one filled with Crystal Lite Lemonade boxes. yes, I know it's not good for you, but on a hot day, it is a refreshing treat.
Back outside, changed out some dirt and will plant broccoli, cabbage and carrots today, then can more pickles and tomatoes.
I dream of a trip to Italy, as I toil away, knowing this is very important work.
